Hello My name is Charlene and I am from Northern Maine. I am married and between us we have 1 son & 3 daughters, 6 grandchildren and two more on the way.
I have only been quilting for about a couple of years. I love it but don't have alot of time for it with my work.
I am expecting two more grandchildren and want to make them both quilts. Just not sure what pattern. I am a newbie at quilting. I do want to learn to applique though.
